Why we love the Covetrus breakfree Breakaway IV Connector
In the fast-paced world of veterinary medicine, intravenous therapy is a crucial aspect of patient care. However, IV lines are susceptible to dislodgements and breakages, leading to waste of medication and blood loss, which creates increased workload for veterinary professionals. Enter the Covetrus breakfree Breakaway IV Connector - a revolutionary solution designed to address these challenges and enhance the efficiency and safety of IV therapy.

"My favorite feature of the Covetrus® breakfree™ Breakaway IV Connector is its remarkable ability to offer our team a valuable two-hour window for reattaching in case it detaches from a patient's fluid line. This not only alleviates concerns about contamination and blood loss but also eliminates the need to replace the catheter, saving our team time and energy." - Dr. Jennifer Remnes, Co-Founder, Vetique Chicago.

Dr. Gregory Echols, a veterinarian from North Carolina, shared his thoughts, stating, "In cases where a patient tears out an IV catheter, it usually takes around 30 minutes to address the situation and restart treatment. My primary challenge in IV therapy revolves around managing fractious or aggressive pets, and I believe that the Covetrus® breakfree™ Breakaway IV Connector device could especially prove to be highly beneficial in such scenarios."

“One of the standout features of the Covetrus® breakfree™ Breakaway IV Connector that I truly appreciate is its potential to greatly benefit hyperactive or neurologically impaired patients. From my perspective, individuals in these categories face the most significant risk of complications resulting from excessive tension on their IV lines or catheters,” Dr. Zonram Liao, Veterinarian at Leave No Paws Behind, Rowland Heights, California.
